like their father or their dog just died.

Everybody wants a box of choc'lates
and a long stem rose. Everybody knows.

Everybody knows that you love me, baby.
Everybody knows that you really do.
Everybody knows that you've been faithful,
give or take a night or two.
Everybody knows you've been discret,
But there were so many people you just had to meet
without your clothes. And everybody knows.

And everybody knows that it's now or never.
Everybody knows that's me or you.
And everybody knows that you live forever
when you've done a line or two.

Old black Joe's still picking cotton
for your ribbon and bows. And everybody knows.

that will dis close What everybody knows.

And everybody knows that you're in trouble.
Everybody knows what you've been through,
from the bloody cross on top of Calvary
to the beach of Malibu.
Everybody knows it's coming apart:
Take one last look at this sacred heart
before it blows. And everybody knows.
